Sophie's choice tidbits

So what's going on here? I think I ought to be playing in the snow by now. I mean it feels like it's winter, sorta, but no fun snow. It's cold in the mornings for my walk, and I have to "wait" while the folks put on a bunch of fur layers or whatever that is. They even are putting stuff on their heads. Sometimes, when we're walking I have to "heel" and "wait" while mom blows her nose and wipes her eyes. I don't know why she makes such a big deal of it. I mean, I just let it fly - sneeze and plop down and quick paw wipe the eye and we're good to GO. I mean GO. Isn't that what it's all about?

Oh! I just met some new Dogster pals and they're chihuahuas. I only just met a real chihuahua. We're going to have new neighbors across the street, but there's no house there yet. Anyway, there are two chis who are going to be my neighbors! One is pretty young and REALLY small and REALLY REALLY loud. Talks all the time. The other one, Molly, I think I could be real friends with. She might be older than me, but she gets me. She just came up and we sniffed and then we followed each other for a little bit. She didn't want to play, but she said it was OK for me to check out the smells around the ground & stuff and stand next to her and go see her mom.

Well, that's all I can think of today. Oh! I forgot again. Remind me to tell you about the porcupine...
